Very true bobby.
Outside of some of the customer complaints about customer service he does make a nice wheel. The are forged and not "forgery" as some might have implied.
I happen to like the wheel and if you thought customer service was bad with MORR have you tried to contact NEEZ USA? No return calls, no email returns, no pricing structure, no dealer structure in place, etc.etc. They make a Porsche Offset for the Turbo 997 but who has a set and other than the white caymen they went on who has a set? What is the retail price? The last I heard they were like $1200/$1400 per wheel and at $4800.00 per set the pricing on the MORR could be a little better to get a "SWING" voters
I like the concavity of this wheel in the rear and the small concavity in the fronts. I vote for this wheel to put it into play. I have already made it clear before on 6speed that I like this wheel.
I think we need to open up our eyes to other options out there. I have read the BMW boards about MORR wheels and the complaints about customer service is resolvable as a BAD wheel is not. They have had more good reviews than bad. I would like to see this wheel get into production.

Now the tendency from manufacturers is "my products are good because they are expensive". I seriously got tired of the "My wheels are more expensive than yours" trend. I work in the automotive industry as a automotive wheel consultant and I know where everybody makes their wheels and how much it cost them to make it. There is no reason why HRE should charge $5600 for a set of wheels and NEEZ $6200/set but MORR can't. It now has become really a matter of how much you are willing to pay for a set of centercaps.
I had a set of HRE and It took over 3 months for my set to arrive and they had been making that style for years. Had problems balancing, then vibrations and then keeping the damn lip looking polished. Take a look at 3PC wheels and if they don't have the centercaps in place you`ll have a hard time telling what they are. Nowadays anybody can make 3PC wheels but not everybody can make a 1PC.
I have owned both 19" VS7 and 19" VS8 on my 335 and after owning dozens of wheels and seen how they are manufactured I can testify it has been one of the best designed, best engineered, and best looking wheel that I have seen and own in a BMW. I have never seem so much class in a wheel. They design wheels specifically for each platform and they make sure the design flows with the vehicles lines.
It did take some time for my VS7 and my VS8 to arrive but they are making a wheel from scratch and are charging over $2000 less than their competitors.
My point is they have had some bad customer service reviews due to a delay in the coating process of the wheel done by their coaters in Ohio but look closely and they have had ZERO negative feedback regarding the quality of their wheels. You will not know what a performance wheel is until you carry a 19.6lb 19" wheel in your hands and hand it to the tire installer and watch the reaction in this face.
I now have an E92 M3 and I`m currently buying again from Carlos. My experience with them has been so satisfying that I'll own MORR wheels for as long as I own cars. I`m getting a 2010 GT3 and will love to have some VS8 Magnesium on that beast
